If you are a fan of 'Dating Around', you might've been heartbroken by the 1.5-year gap between the pilot and the sophomore season. Are you someone who binge-watched the entire season of 'Dating Around' Season 2 when it premiered this past Friday, June 12, on Netflix? Wondering if there's a Season 3? Continue reading below as we try to answer your questions. 

Release date

There's no defined release date or any indication of when the show will premiere its third season. However, considering the second installment of the series just dropped, the announcement might come much much later. The previous season too was announced just a few days shy from the release date of its pilot season. This leaves one wondering about the status of Season 3. Was it scheduled to go on the floors a few months post-summer? Were the cast and the state finalized? Has it already been shot? Has the schedule gone off the rails due to the Covid-19? Only time can tell. Bookmark this article and check back in a few days for more updates.

Plot

The reason why this show works so much is for its no-frills nature. The show features six singletons going on five different blind dates. Dinner, drinks, maybe an after-dinner and drinks hangout at the pad is what the daters indulge in before calling it a night. At the end of each episode, the singles pick a person to go on a second date with. That is all the show is about. No steamy scenes or pod dates like the other dating shows like 'Too Hot To Handl' and 'Love is Blind'. 

Cast 

Each season features a new cast. The pilot season saw New Yorkers on the show looking for love and for the second season, the show was filmed in New Orleans. There is no confirmation as to which state the show will move to next or which contestants might feature on the show.
